In the absence of an actual list of authors, yes. It looks like they are using 
the printable version of fr.wikipedia's articles in their near real time 
feed. If that is true then all one of our developers has to do is make the 
URL text into clickable hypertext. That is something we should do anyway 
since it makes it easier for people to use our content while at the same time 
following our interpretation of the GNU FDL.
